Hi guy! I. Fairly new to collecting watchs but excited to find the site. I've always worked with my hands so I guess what drew me to the site was the modding. I have ordered basic tools and books on repairing and making watchs and can't wait to dive in. I use to repair and restore espresso machines for fun. I plan on getting a rep speedmaster or sub next ( doesn't every new member?) so if anyone is looking to resell. I currently have the watchs below. I look forward to learning and maybe one day paying it foward. Thanks guys -- Mike

Hello and Greetz to you, gmg (underscore deleted)

 

Nice collection you have!

 

Particularly like the 42 Breit Chronomat,

 

and the 79 Seconda

 

have a fondness for both the Breitlings and Sekondas!

 

Good luck with the progress in modding, and

 

nice to have you on board!

btw, gmg,

 

I have a 1964 Poljot "Ultrathin", the watch won a prize in Geneva for the movement, being amazingly thin, it seems as if it is almost a part of the wrist when worn.  The dial is a bit faded, and I have thought to have it re-done, but am wary of not getting a good job.. the watch WIS on watchyouseek do not seem to recommend this. At any rate, good luck with your foray into the hobby!

 

Life is Good!

 

K.
